Osborne EB-3 Miter Gauge

The Osborne EB-3 Miter Gauge uses the inherently strong structural properties of a triangle to keep its fence rigid all the way out to the end. This means no more inaccuracies caused by wobbly miter gauge fences. The EB-3 features a new telescopic fence that offers support and repeat-ability up to 42'' from the blade. The stop flips out of the way when not in use and abrasive tape on the fence face prevents workpiece slippage. The patented angle adjustment assembly makes it possible to quickly and easily find any angle, while the precision detent plunger auto-locates common angles quickly: every 5°, and at 22.5°. The fence can also be adjusted from side to side, allowing tight clearance to the blade, and the entire assembly is reversible in seconds for use in either miter slot. A removable heavy-duty steel T-slot washer holds the guide bar snug to the table, while the three guide bar expansion screws remove any play in the miter slot. A simple-to-use lockable calibration mechanism allows you to make precision angle adjustments when needed.

Features:

Three expansion slots in the guide bar provide a perfect fit with your table saw. Adjustments are made from the top side for ease of fitting

New fence extension allows for solid support of long material and carries the flip stop out to 42''

Side-to-side fence adjustability for better material support next to the blade

Accuracy within 1/30th degree right out of the box, but includes a simple and precise zero calibration adjustment feature should the need arise

Index on the telescoping arm allows you to set specific angles. There are 20 preset/auto-locating settings: one at each 5° increment and at 22 1/2°. Half or even quarter degree settings can be selected by visually splitting the space between the angle indicator lines

Picked up this miter gauge when I took one out of service do to drop damage. Liked the geometry of the gauge and it's potential for accuracy. Out of the box it was easy to assemble, dead on accurate, and stable to the maximum deflection available. No wiggle no wobble just rock solid. Started making cuts in scrap and verifying the angle with a digital measure and the accuracy holds true. Very glad I invested in this tool, it just made my saw a lot better.

This really is the best miter gauge ever, accurate, fast, easy to set. AND to reset. With the Osborne I don't dread setting up for a 45, 60, 5, 10, or 22.5 or bringing it back to 90. It really repeatable too. You do have to pay attention to where on the mark you are registering if you want super accurate cuts.

This miter gauge by Osborne is very well made and easy to assemble. Be sure to take the time to install the fence facing material. Setups are easy, straightforward and the result is dead accurate. Couldn't be more pleased.

OKgot tired of having to check the angle on the miter gauge that came with my new saw and decided to upgrade.out of the box this is a good strong and accurate miter gauge. I will agree with those that said the sand paper on the front side of the bar is too course. 120 to 150 would have been fine ( excuse the play on words).The Flip stop works well. As stated in the owners paperwork , the tape measure is just a reference , not an actual absolute marker from the blade.

I have never had success cutting tight miters. I have tried a miter saw, home made miter sled, and the factory miter gauge that came with my table saw. The EB-3 was a game changer. It was spot on right out of the box. Well worth the price.

This is hands down the best miter gauge out there. Just can't say enough about it. I'm retired and sold my cabinet shop. Went from a sliding table saw to a Bosch contractors saw. With this miter gauge and a few adaptations I can cross cut and dado 16" wide stock. I has flip stops out to 42". Extremely accurate, and quick to set. Easy to set from sliding T bevel gauge. BUY IT!

I don't know if this is the best miter gauge you can get, not having tried them all, but it's very good. The triangulated design makes it very rigid and easy to adjust, the flip-up stop works well, and the price is reasonable. I'd certainly buy it again, and would recommend it to anyone.

I love this thing? It is the best and most accurate and repeatable miter gauge I have ever seen and used! The positive stops at every 5 degrees and the accurately marked single-degree marks make it easy to repeat angle cuts over and over. The stop block can be seat anywhere needed to make repeatable length cuts all day long!It does not get any easier to use!

I purchased this gauge for a large project that required a high degree accuracy and repeatability. This tool far exceeded my expectations, and the flip stop, that was included, was just icing on the cake.

I got my Osborne EB-3 miter gauge a week ago and was very excited about it until I tried to put it work. The guide bar was about a 32nd to wide for my Craftsman table saw. This necessitated a trip to a local metal fabricator who is in the process of trimming it down to a usable width for me. Other than that, the gauge looks pretty substantial and I'm looking forward to giving it a try. We'll see!

Great miter gauge. Definitely better than traditional style(Incra, Kreg) gauges. Easy set up. Easy to use. Easy to switch sides. The grip strip provided is too coarse, I used 150g sandpaper, and I think it is perfect. The flip stop works well, but would be nice if it was reversible.

Through many years of woodworking, I had never owned a good gauge so when I decided to get one, I had several choices and decided to go with Osborne. I'm not sure it was the right choice. Here is my experiences:

PositivesEasy to setupVery accurate and stays accurate.Nice to be have accurate angles on both sidesGood adjustment of the fence positionEasy to take on and of

NegativesThe track does not fit well in my miter gauge slot because during manufacturing, the drilling/tapping of the hole for the handle made the track bulge so much it rubs on the side of the slot. It does not run as smoothly as I expected.The nut for the stop ends up right over the tape measure so you can't see the setting.The tape measure is glued in place so the position can't be adjusted when changing blades. or after adjusting the fence position

No matter what angle, what length, miters are always dead on. Simple to operate lock in angles at EVERY 10° , along with the standards of 22.5°, 33.3 & 45 very accurate it is the best in the industry bar none!!

BEST ANSWER:Yes, but it takes making a bracket and purchasing some parts from Rockler. The directions for making the bracket, and the parts to be purchased from Rockler can be found on the Osborne Website in their videos.

There is a YouTube Video that demonstrates how to easily & inexpensively make one that works very well. This is by far the best Miter Gauge made. Prior to my retirement, I owned a large sliding table saw. Go to YouTube and search Osborne EB-3 for several neat videos. ENJOY!
